editU.S. National Parks
editI am working my way through the 58 U.S. National Parks articles. Please feel free to help. (Should probably standardize link text) Rmhermen 17:43, Oct 16, 2004 (UTC)
Using a criteria of designation of 75% or more of the park as wilderness, I have noted the parks which should have the brown background on the summary box instead of green (these are IUCN level Ib).

U.S. National Forests
editFor complete listing see List of U.S. National Forests. Still some redlined articles, but becoming more completed. Article quality ranges from single sentence stubs to thoroughly detailed discussions. 2 forests have no articles - as of 14 February 2007
U.S. Wilderness areas
editThough some work has been completed, there are hundreds of redlined links to vacant artilces in need of development See: List of U.S. Wilderness Areas. Approximately 40 articles are detailed and utilize images and the infobox appropriate for wilderness articles.
- Note that the list article may not be complete. See Talk:List of U.S. Wilderness Areas for discussion of "missing" areas.
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service areas
editOver 250 written articles yet still hundreds of redlined links to vacant articles. See: List of National Wildlife Refuges. Several articles now utilize the infobox but we will need to go back to older articles and add it in to each one.
